Sorry of I ruffled your feathers. But you know damn well that girl would never call a black a Cracker even if he rode into town on his horse cracking his whip.

You know exactly what it meant and that girl on the witness stand never had a clue about the history of the word, and probably would have a hard time spelling it.

That was my point. I knew the origin of the Cracker term from the first time I ever went to Florida back nearly 50 years ago. Back then where I was familiar, most everything between Orlando, which was a sleepy little farm town with a few new outfits servicing the 'space industry', and the Atlantic coast, was orange groves or cattle ranches. Lots of Crackers lived there. It was before the Mouse ate Central Florida.

Damn right you ruffled my feathers. To piss off a conservative, tell a lie.

Your point was to accuse me of saying something I didn’t say. If you bothered to read even one of my posts, you would know your accusation is way off base. I have repeatedly pointed out the difference between “Florida cracker” and “creepy ass cracker.” I don’t know where you got the idea that I said they were same, but you sure as hell didn’t get it from any of my posts.

If you didn’t want a truthful answer to your question, then you shouldn’t have asked it. I’m not the only one who answered your question with the truth.

Looks like I ruffled your feathers too. To piss off a liberal, tell the truth.
